Brushed against a curb and decided to have my alignment checked and was told a few tires are askew with the primary one that was off was the front passenger side. I took it to pep boys and they did a 4 wheel alignment. Is this ok? My vehicle is a 2WD but I was told it’s best to align all 4 so it’s uniform

Hi:

Absolutely, it is okay. Most modern vehicles have independent rear suspension. This includes your vehicle. A 4 wheel alignment simply squares up all 4 tires rather than just the front. It is actually recommended.

Let me know if this helps or if you have other questions.

Take care,

Joe
